Celtic prepare to entertain St. Mirren at Celtic Park at lunchtime on Sunday, with high hopes of improving on their excellent record against the opposition, having taken all the points from 85 of the 118 contests.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Celtic Park was less than a year ago, in December 2007, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Scottish Premier match.
